WHAT TO BRING TO A FREE CONCERT AT THE OLD ZOO PICNIC AREA

COME PREPARED

SEATING IS PICNIC-STYLE

HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY

COME PREPARED

• Don't forget your canned food donation. Every food donation feeds a hungry child.
• No pets, please.
• PLEASE CARPOOL WHENEVER POSSIBLE: Available parking fills quickly. Frequently concert parking is full a half hour before the concert.
• Give yourself plenty of time to park and get situated. Be prepared for a short walk from the parking area.
• Dress comfortably. It may get cooler as the sun goes down at Twilight concerts that take place in the months of June and September. You might want to bring a sweater.
• Bring a picnic. Only a few snack items, beverages and water are available for purchase at the concert.
• FOR TWILIGHT CONCERTS: Although flying insects are not usually a problem, this is the great outdoors, so arming your family with insect repellant would be wise.

SEATING IS PICNIC-STYLE

• Bring a blanket. Folding chairs are also workable in some areas, however, much of the seating area is on an incline.
• We ask patrons with regular height folding chairs to set up toward the sides of the audience area so as not to block the sight-lines of those on blankets. the low-profile of beach chairs works better in the center areas.
• If you are carrying many items you might want to bring a collapsible shopping cart to make things easier for you.

HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY

• Special handicapped parking is provided. Look for signs to the "Artists Entrance."
• The path from the parking lot is up-hill.
• A handicapped accessible toilet is conveniently located directly adjacent to the main concert area.
